    I'm thinking of an example where I visited a log file shortly after
    starting some server.  Then a few hours later I ask to revert the
    buffer, not realising that verbose logging was enabled and the logfile
    is now several gigabytes in size.  I would want Emacs to warn me that
    the file (which was tiny before) is now huge.

I am not sure whether the question is desirable in this case, but I am
sure that in the usual case it is undesirable.

If you would like different behavior, you can change the code.
